I appear to be on a different wavelength from everyone else here. As far as I can tell, what you have just described is _precisely_ the Details view in the Journal. In fact, Browse already does exactly this; it downloads the MP3 file into the Datastore and directs the user to the Details page, which presents the user with a list of all Activities that have registered this MIME-type. The current pathways could use some refinement, but this system is already in place. There is no need to imagine new Bitfrost extensions or design some new launching GUI. - --Ben -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkhyTaQACgkQUJT6e6HFtqRr6ACeNoK0d55yxjdd/kl8JfS670yH WSUAnjQ2sE573MAB50bHLokZhJ+F0xNy =NSYA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
